In THE House of Commons last
evening Mr. Gladstone moved his res
olu,ion that the proclamation Of the
Irish National League was based on
insufficient information and should not
continue In force. In support of his
motion he charged that the proclnma'
tion--a proceeding unaccompanIed by
any judicial inqulry-was In the na.
iurc of declaration OF war upon the
Irish people. His address was greeted
throughout with applause, and It's cf-
feet will doubtless be to largely
strengthen public sentiment In the
conviction that the Government in
issuing the proclamation committed q
grave blunder us well as gross injus.

Colonel +. D. Curtis tells us that
not only should skim-milk be warmed
when it is fed to calves, but it also
should be warmed when it is fed to
young pigs. The fact is that cold skim
milk is just about poison TO the bowels
of any young animal that it is fed to.
Not only should it always be warm
when ii is fed but it should invariably
be sweet american Dairymmn.
Prof. Stewart says a very valuable
use of nax-sced can be made by grind
ing one bushcl with eight bushels of
oats, or all the nax-seed that can be
ground with oats without sticking to
the mill-stones. Then mix one hundred
pounds of this ground oats and flax
seed with two hundred pounds Of bran.
This will be the best kind of feed for
young pigs; and it will be good for them
all the time up to fattening; and be-
sides this they will be smooth, rangy
pigs, making good roastcrs at any
time.-H0nri'S Dairyman.
That MAI who complained that
his COW wouldn't give rich milk, and
that the butter wouldn't come, should
remember that he cant make bricks
without straw. Let him give his cow
some butter-producing food-say four
to six quarts of corn meal day-and
after the COW has got used to this feed
instead of bran, see if she doesn't give
better butter and more of it and have
it come quicker. My daily ration for a
butter COW is to give half y peek of
corn or its equivalent in meal, a table
spoonful of salt and all the straw, hay
or corn fodder she will cat up clean,
with plenty of pure water. Cor. Farm

Important Indications of Good Quality in
an Animal for the Dairy.
A model useful dairy COW may be
known at a glance by an expert. She
has a fine, long head, broad between the
eyes. and a thin. wide mnzzle; the eyes
are large. and of a mild expression; the
neck is thin and long; the ears are thin
and covered within with a deep yellow
skin; the %forrquarters are light and
thin, and the whole body has much the
shape of a wedge, increasing in size to
the rear; the legs are thin with fine bone;
the belly is large and deep, with great
capacity for food; the back is broad and
straight. and the ribs are well rounded
towards the rear; the bones of the rump
are wide apart; the tail is long and thin;
the thighs are thin and are set widely
apart; the udder is large and full, cs-
pecially behind; the tcats are Of good
size, and set far apart upon a broad, level
| uddcr, and the milk-vein, so-called,
which is the large vein leading from the
udder and passing into the abdomen,
and which is an indication OF the amount
of blood circulating through the milk
glands, and contributing to the milk
secretion should be full and tortuous

About Black Headed Pins.

Sitting alongside n lady in the cle'
waited train the other day, writes an OBJ
servant New Yorker, she had occasion
to adjust n portion of her dress which
was fastened with n black pin, when
the head broke in fragments and dis
closed the fact that it was some kind of
composition fastened on a broken
needle. Curiosity led me to make
some inquiries, and l found that nearly
all the black-hcaded pins in the market
are made from needles which are
broken in the factories in testing the
eyes. Any n who has handled the
black-headcd pins has probably noticed
their remarkable sharpness as COM
pared with the ordinary white pins
sold in the market. This is the expla-
nation-that they are old needless

Charming Novelties for Late summer and
Early Autumn Wear.

Considerable opposition has been
made by fashion leaders to the rcyiving
mode of matching the various parts of
the toilet, but the current has fairly set
in in the direction of this elegant but
rather expensive fashion. Matched
toilets in all shades of golden brown,
new tcrracotta, russell. olive, and many
shades Of gray are already being pre-
pared for the autumn by Partisan de-
signers. Like most other fashions, |
matching u suit entire from head TO
foot will be the privilege and luxury
of the few at the outset, but little by |
little will cncroach, and finally be fol-
lowed by the majority.
The rare and exquisite lace gowns
which appear this summer are bcauti-
full enough to tempt the eye and heart
of the strictest Mother Superior, and
they are fit for the wear of II Queen.
There is no danger that these superb
toilets will lose their charm or popular
ity for seasons to come, for no ooncr
does the taste for certain designs and
styles become the least tiresome than
scores of other novel and still more
beautiful devices appear, which again
render them impossible to pass by with
out a purchase. Lace fabrics are still
in the zenith of their glory, and on
stitute the gowns par crceilencc, being
still first choice of all the rare dress
goods now in vogue.
Very high bows of picot ribbon re-
main the general fashion for trimming
hats and bonnets, and the object of the
milliner is to arrange these in various
odd ways, such as plated half-wheels
made of tri-colored ribbons, the looped
edges showing from the front instead
of the entire width of the bows. Forkcd
ends and cockade bows closely tied
and denscly clustered form another
style, and such tri-colors are chosen rs
salmon, goblin blue, and Roman red,
rosewood, peachblow. and Persian
mauve, olive, periwinklc pink, and cicl
blue, and like odd combinations.
Silk warp French cashmere in oxqui-
sitcly fine qualities will compose n Of
the very fashionable dress fabrics the
coming season. Samples of new Paris.
ian dyes and textures just forwarded ia
importers show exquisite shades OF
beige, golden bronze, hcliotrope striped

The science Of surgery has made such
wonderful progress in modern times, that
the most Intricate and delicate operations
are now undertaken and carried to a suc-
cessful issue. There are now several well
authenticated cases of what is known as
pneumotouy, that is TO say, the removal of
diseased portions OF the lungs IN cases of
consumption. While, however, this delicate
performed, tho risks attending 1t are SO
great, aud the chances of recovery so slight,
that 1t is seldom resorted TO. The safest
plan in consumptive cases is to use DR.
fierce's Golden Medical Discovery. This
will always cure the disease in its earlier
stage thoroughly arresting the ravages Of
the terrible malady, by removing its caust
and healing the lungs.
